He's more than good enough to play the only format he does for Australia. Anything else is a different question.

In longer forms of the game, he thrives on width; the "width predator" tag that James Brayshaw is very correct. He opens himself up in Twenty20 cricket to allow him a swinging arc when the ball is over the pegs.

I think he could quite definitely be a quality first class cricketer, if given a chance to bat as himself, and at number 5 or 6. That's where he's made to play in the longer forms of the game. He was seen as a super finisher in OD cricket as a youth, and I think he could possibly carve out a role like that in the future.

Not that old yet is he Jack?

I imagine time's on his side in terms of development. Could see him being a very handy ODI player once he learns to play the right tempo for the situation. Can't say I've seen any of him in longer forms at all.
